The archipallium is often considered contiguous with the [[piriform cortex|olfactory cortex]], but the extent of the archipallium varies among species. In older species, such as fish, the archipallium makes up most of the [[telencephalon|cerebrum]]. Amphibians develop an archipallium and [[paleopallium]], whereas reptiles develop an archipallium, paleopallium and a primitive [[neopallium]].
In humans, the archipallium makes up the [[hippocampus]].
